We learn that our friend, Joe Reyburn.
OF the Irsn Mountain Hotel, lost horse last
Sunday. He lad loaned the animal to q
party coming dowHssere to the picnic. The
round trip was made, but the horse died
shortly after reaching home. The intense
heat of that day was the cause, and We are
Eather surprised that this Is the only calam.
aty of the kind in this vicinity that has thus
far been reported.
We again call the attention of the City
Fathers to the sidewalk In front Of the va
cant lot adjoining Mrs. Dayis' book store.
IT'S good enough, just now, when swamps
are hard pan and creeks are gullies; but sin

that may be recognized with profit. When

Rev. Chas. g. Davis, the new rector Of st.

family, in our city, aud will hold services In
st. Paups church two Sundays-the first and

Singularly enough, Q rather strong breeze

better. A few acrobatic, tumbling and hor-
ixontal bar fests, with song and some de-
cidedly stale chestnuts from the clowns,
made up the bill. About the only redeem
ing feature Of the whole performance was
its briefness. Mr.. DeHaven, evidently, has
served his time, and should seek that rest
which awaits those who have spent life
endeavoring to promote the happiness Of
others. Whether Mr.. DeHayen has been
successful In his endeavors Ii of no conse.

resumed few days ago its hearing of
evidence in connection with the al

the acme Of diplomatic policy had
been reached by the would-be corrup-
tionists in their manner of suggesting
the "boodle" idea. For instance. Jas.

remarked to him that he did "not
want to buy anybody; but that when
he (witness) voted for the railroad bill
in question, he would derive $1,000
from some unknown source" The
